First and foremost, Tyler is a business man. He advertises on his blog, so views and follows matter. The reason he comments on every post is so that his URL is attached (often with a funny quip) to the post when his followers reblog it, therefore leading to more views/follows on his blog.

Secondly, his blog isn’t bad. He always has funny posts and is actually extremely polite and well mannered to all of his followers. He never trash talks anyone and he constantly puts up with your bullshit like this:

Now I’m sure that backhandedbitch thought s/he was being hilarious and doing tumblr a favor by sending this message, and I’m sure s/he has a Lindsay Lohan/Paris Hilton reaction picture to reply to this post if s/he ever sees it, but you guys need to understand that Tyler Oakley is a real person with real feelings. 

I can’t believe I’m even writing this post because I thought people on tumblr would know better than this. Just because someone is successful and popular doesn’t mean it’s okay to do this to them. Bullying sucks, no matter your age, race, orientation, gender, or popularity. 

You don’t have to like people. You just have to not be an asshole. (Even to backhandedbitch, by the way.)
